Abstract:

The aim of this cross-sectional study was to analyze user satisfaction in relation to Primary Health Care services in the Federal District and its associated factors. A total of 4,476 users of the 62 existing Family Health Strategy Teams were included; a pre-tested questionnaire with open and closed questions was applied. The degree of satisfaction was: 54.9% Satisfied and 23.0% Very Satisfied. For the General Satisfaction Level outcome, there was less satisfaction in cases that the user didn´t receive the care he sought for (OR 12.1 p=0.01); did not receive a home visit (OR 1.7 p=0.01); is female (OR 1.2 p=0.01) and declared to be non-white (OR 0.77 p=0.021). The Chance to recommend the Health Unit was: High (43.4%) and Very High (17.7%). Similarly, the lower chance to recommend was associated with no care received (OR 5.1 p=0.01) and absence of home visit (OR 1.5 p=0.01); there was no association with sociodemographic variables. Evidence showed that health services are satisfactory for most users. In order to increase satisfaction, it is recommended to reduce the occurrence of cases the user didn´t receive the care he sought for. The study provides evidence regarding the importance of having the complete Family Health Strategy team and of expanding home visit.
